A “Sense and Shoot” Approach for Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Contaminants in Water

Kamat, Prashant V., Huehn, Rebecca, Nicolaescu, Roxana·2002·The Journal of Physical Chemistry B

Abstract

A “sense and shoot” approach has been developed for the photocatalytic degradation of organic contaminants from aqueous solutions. The presence of aromatic compounds such as chlorinated phenols is readily detected from the quenching of visible emission of ZnO semiconductor film. The emission quenching is quantitative and can be analyzed on the basis of adsorption equilibrium between ZnO and organic molecules. High apparent association constant values ( K a = (1−5) × 10 4 M -1 ) make possible the detection of these organic molecules at very low concentration levels. For example, 1 ppm of 4-chlorocatechol in water results in a 15% decrease of ZnO emission. Interestingly, the same ZnO film is capable of degrading aromatic compounds present in water under UV irradiation. The concept of adopting a strategy of simultaneous sensing and degradation in photocatalysis is illustrated in this paper.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
